Evolution of Real Friends by Kanye West

"Real Friends" is the twelfth track from Kanye West's seventh studio album, The Life of Pablo. The song features backing vocals from Ty Dolla $ign. Like many songs in The Life of Pablo, this song originated from the SWISH era.
The song's instrumental heavily samples Frank Dukes (A.K.A. Ging)'s 2015 song, "Couches". Kanye's opening lines are also an interpolation of Whodini's 1984 song, "Friends".
Recorded
2015
Producer(s)
Boi-1da, Frank Dukes, Havoc, Kanye West, Sevn Thomas, King, Noah Goldstein, Mike Dean
